According to Merriam Webster's definition of injury: "hurt, damage, or loss sustained".

Do you think this article is not attempting to damage the reputation of Modi?

Dictionary.com has an interesting definition "Law. any wrong or violation of the rights, property, reputation, etc., of another for which legal action to recover damages may be made."

Seems like it could possibly apply since there is an attempt to damage Modi's reputation.

Do you really think Vox, a left leaning news outlet, is not intending to harm the reputation of Modi, a right leaning politician?
